Speaking at the post-match presentation, Rohit also expressed gratitude towards the crowd for their support.
"It was fantastic . We got what we wanted as a group. It was a bit unfortunate that we couldn't play the entire game, but we made the most of the time we had. Absolutely fantastic . We love coming to Australia, and it's always great to see fans turn up to support us. There's never been a time when they haven't shown up. It's really nice to see people coming out and cheering for us," he said.
The match, originally scheduled as a two-day affair, was reduced to a 46-overs-per-side contest due to rain on Saturday and Sunday.
India won the toss and chose to field first. A magnificent and resilient century by U19 batting sensation Sam Konstas and a late surge from Hanno Jacobs propelled the hosts to 240 in 43.2 overs.
Harshit Rana was India's standout bowler, dismantling the middle order during his six-over spell. Akash Deep picked up two wickets, while Mohammed Siraj, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, and Prasidh Krishna claimed one wicket each.
In the run chase, openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul gave India a solid start with a 75-run partnership, though Rahul retired hurt. After skipper Rohit Sharma was dismissed for just three, Shubman Gill and Nitish Kumar Reddy dominated the Australian bowling attack. Contributions from Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja guided India to a total of 257/5 in their 46 overs.
Charlie Anderson was the most effective bowler for Australia's PM XI.
Sam Konstas was named 'Player of the Match' for his outstanding century.
